WW1 - understanding and writing testimonies from the First World War

This is a set of 5 lessons which focus on the personal testimonies of those caught up in the First World War. The activities and objectives are included on the lesson plan and there are resource sheets and a planning sheet.

Children work in groups to read and re-enact stories from eye-witness accounts. They then plan and write their own accounts and read them to the class.
